Alphabet Fifteen Interpretive Designs Drawn And Arranged With Explanatory Text And Illustrations
Alphabet Fifteen is a 1918 typographic study by American type designer Frederic W. Goudy, published in New York by M. Kennerly, presenting fifteen letter designs with explanatory notes for type designers and printers. Each letter appears as a large capital with its lowercase and decorative variants arranged in a grid of framed panels, with short historical notes on the letter's origin beneath. The pictures show blackletter, roman and flourished forms of Q, K, C and S, which a designer could use as reference for display lettering, initial capitals and variant letterforms.
